Today's Post

I probably should have written this before 10:30 PM the night before.  But then there's that wants to relax and not do anything once I get home.  It's difficult fighting that mental part of oneself, though I'm pretty sure that 's an absolute to succeed in life.  I guess it becomes of a problem of fighting what you think everyone else is doing versus what you happen to be doing.  The underlying influence of media tells us that we should work 40 hours, and then go home and spend time with the kids.  After spending time with the kids, we should kick back, relax, and do nothing and watch TV.  

But that's not what many of the people who have been wildly successful have done.  You never hear the benefits of hard work and long hours.  It's always a race to the relaxation and to do as little as possible.

Which makes me wonder: what happened to the stories of people with ambitions?  Have they just been written off and stored away?

How is it in a land where opportunity abounds over every hill and through every door are people told "it can't be done"?
